Gold boasts an impressively committed performance from Matthew McConaughey, but it's just one glittering nugget in an otherwise uneven heap of cinematic silt.

Gold is a good entertainment for adults, with an increasingly rare scale for independent works that are not blockbusters and therefore deserve, at least, an opportunity. [Full Review in Spanish] August 16, 2019 | Full Review…

Gold falters not only due to the oversaturation of its premise but also from heavy-handed pacing, dull characters. July 20, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Even balding and paunchy, McConaughey's latest charming rogue is more than enough to keep audiences riveted through Gold's patchy rhythm. March 20, 2019 | Full Review…

It misses a beat by avoiding the ethical implications of Third World profiteering. The film has a funny streak a mile wild - but a lot of this humour is undercut when the gags keep coming, and the reality check doesn't. March 8, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's got the good-looking movie star uglying up and plenty of attempts at complex drama and extended metaphors and the whole shebang. But for whatever reason, the pieces don't fit together. It just doesn't work. February 13, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Wells is a fascinating character and, on paper, would seem to be a dream role... but, for all its padding, it is a rather thinly-sketched role, and the actor's performance is little more than a scenery-chewing exercise. February 13, 2019 | Full Review…

The characters are fun and the plot serviceable, but it distinctly lacks a hook. September 18, 2018 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review…

A takedown of the kind of high-octane greed and speculation that lead to financial crashes, it stars Matthew McConaughey in all his sweaty, bouncing-off-the-walls, Wolf of Wall Street and Dallas Buyers Club glory. August 23, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Gaghan never catches you up in Wells's gold-fever dream, so the movie, like his plan, falls apart. His attempt to impose a mock-heroic template on the material, doesn't fit. March 8, 2018 | Full Review…
